Thank You for Connecting Global Minds
“First I was afraid…” Some of you might be thinking about “I Will Survive”, the iconic song by Gloria Gaynor, but that’s not what this is about. In 2017, we were able to listen even more closely to your stories and we were happy to hear about so many great experiences and see the photos which are proof of them.
Many of you felt nervous about moving abroad or thought that the prospect of becoming an expat was scary. Of course, there are many exciting adventures and new experiences, but the first step isn’t always the easiest — on the contrary! We listened to your experiences and it brought us such joy to hear how InterNations volunteers have welcomed you and helped you feel at home abroad.
At more than 50,000 activities and events in 2017 alone, 6,000 InterNations Ambassadors and Consuls have helped you settle into their new home abroad and make meaningful connections along the way.
On behalf of the entire InterNations team, we would like to say a big thank you to our Consuls and Ambassadors, for all of their hard work and commitment to connecting expats and global minds in their community!
